A laptop for Zaira who is in school and is job hunting

Posted Sep 9, 2024
Zaira has made the difficult decision to enroll late in a technical program as she continues her job search. She has never owned a laptop before, and having one would greatly aid her in her studies and in her quest for employment. Previously, she spent a lot of time at the library using their computers for free, but she longs to be able to work from the comfort of her own home, where she can focus better. Despite the challenges she faces, Zaira's determination and resilience are truly inspiring.

Zaira is 18 years old and lives in NJ

Zaira entered foster care at the age of 12 after the courts verified that neither she nor her siblings had ever gone to school or seen a doctor. Fortunately, Zaira was placed with a super supportive resource family that has gone above and beyond to help her catch up educationally as much as possible. She is incredibly bright and has worked hard during her few years in school to excel for a brighter future.
